Haredi hoodlum who injured mother during Mea Shearim riots loves being in prison

One of two culprits who injured a mother during riots in Mea Shearim over a month ago, which were sparked over arrests made in the vandalism of a cellphone store not complying with Haredi standards in the enclave, seems proud to be in prison:
An ultra-Orthodox man who was charged on suspicion of his involvement in seriously injuring a woman during a December riot in Jerusalem said he is proud to be behind bars.

Meir Kazav, 22, and a 16-year-old have been charged on suspicion that they lit a garbage dumpster on fire and then rolled it down a street, where it hit Mirel Dzalovsky, crushing her against a wall. Dzalovsky, 40 and a mother of 10, remains in a serious condition. The other suspect cannot be identified in the media, as he is a minor.

[...] A letter from Kazav was published in Jerusalem’s Mea Shearim neighborhood on “pashkevilim” — posters displayed in public places that are used to transmit information to the community that traditionally does not use telecommunications at home.

Kazav wrote that was “a huge privilege and every day that I am behind bars, I thank God, may God be blessed for that,” according to a report from the Walla news site.

In the missive, he noted that he wants to be transferred to a cell without a television set so that he can “continue to live as an ultra-Orthodox Jew.”

Kazav wrote that all he asks is “that they let me live as a Jew and that they do not cause me to sin with forbidden sights and by hearing words of heresy and lechery.”

Ultra-Orthodox groups responsible for publishing the pashkevilim told Walla they will rally to support the suspect “to save him from the jaws of Satan.”
If anybody thinks the above statements sound eerily similar to what Islamic jihadists can declare, it tragically does. And this surely hints at one of the worst things about these ultra-Orthodox zealots - they're throwing away their lives for the sake of an isolationist ideology that doesn't do Judaism any good. It goes without saying such a despicable person, in this case, doesn't deserve to be put in a cell sans TV, and he has no business claiming to be a Jew at all. Those clannists who implied outsiders are "satan" also committed a most serious offense.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green

  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
